Can anybody recommend a good range ammo for AR's that won't break the bank.

I have a coupla 100 rds. of Remington, but would like a good trade off of price & quality.

 

TIA... :mrgreen:

Check Cabelas periodically for Lake City arsenal 5.56mm ammo. Preferably on stripper clips. Sometimes they'll have a good deal for a 1000 round box.

PMC order online from palmetto state armory.

The Lake City surplus is good ammo. Much more accurate than almost any commercial ammo I have tested, and also much hotter. I chrono'd several boxes, and got close to 3200fps, which is must faster than my very fast reloads and very much faster than any other commercial ammo.

 

Easily identifiable by the 10 rounds per stripper clip, in cardboard sleeves of 3 clips.

help a good guy out and buy the other 1K rds he will have left after I buy the other 1k.

 

A very good deal. He will prob sell some or all. No shipping.

+1 on both the PMC and Palmetto. LTDAmmo is also a good place to order it from.

What is considered a good price for brass ammo? Is re-manufactured OK?

 

I've never used re-manufactured ammo in any of my pistols or rifles but I can see going through a LOT more rounds with an AR15 and wanting to buy in bulk as cheaply as I could still get safe reliable ammo....

remanufactured does not necessarily mean cheaper. =) Take a look at some of the stuff dicks sells.

 

if you want to go local, Take a look at dicks. often times, they have remington UMC 223 for like $7 a box. Never had an issue with it.

 

PMC is reliable... but the smoke and smell just gets to me. Have shot wolf 223 and never had issues with that either. obviously not reloadeable.
